Shortly after the exposé was published, McGowan took to Twitter to accuse Weinstein of rape. Since that time, McGowan has been a major part of the #MeToo movement. She's not, however, a fan of the Time's Up movement, as she explains in a new interview with the Sunday Times.

"I just think they're douchebags. They're not champions. I just think they're losers. I don't like them," McGowan says of the Hollywood stars involved with the movement. "How do I explain the fact that I got a GQ Man of the Year award and no women's magazines and no women's organisations have supported me?"

I never said #MeToo is a lie. Ever. I was talking about Hollywood and Time’s Up, not #MeToo. Ugh. I’m so tired of erroneous sh*tstorms. #MeToo is about survivors and their experiences, that cannot be taken away.

McGowan also shares that she hasn't been invited to any of the campaign lunches.

"And I don't want to go, because it's all bullshit. It's a lie. It's a Band-Aid lie to make them feel better," she continues. "I know these people, I know they're lily-livered, and as long as it looks good on the surface, to them, that's enough."

After her Sunday Times article was published, McGowan took to social media to clarify that her comments were aimed at Hollywood and Time's Up, not the #MeToo movement.

"I never said #MeToo is a lie. Ever," she tweeted. "I was talking about Hollywood and Time's Up, not #MeToo. Ugh. I'm so tired of erroneous sh*tstorms. #MeToo is about survivors and their experiences, that cannot be taken away.

McGowan has previously spoken out against the Time's Up movement for partnering with a top Hollywood agency.

"The thing is is that, the intentions are good, but I know the people behind it," McGowan said during an appearance on The View in January. "It's for CAA agents who needed good PR. And I hope that they, desperately, help these women."
